Send Scanned Data to an Email Recipient

Related Models:MFC‑B7810DW / MFC‑B7811DW
Send scanned data directly from your machine to an email recipient without using a computer. This function allows your machine to scan documents and send them to an email address without your machine being connected to a computer. To send the scanned data as an attachment directly to your default email application using the iPrint&Scan software on your computer or the Scan button on your machine, use the "Scan to Email Attachment" function instead.
  • To send scanned data to an email recipient, you must configure your machine to communicate with your network and email server, which is used to send and receive emails.
  • Configure these items from the machine's control panel or Web Based Management.
  • To use the Scan to Email Server function, connect your machine to the network and access an SMTP server. Set up the following SMTP email settings:

    • Server address

    • Port number

    • User name

    • Encryption type (SSL or TLS)

    • Email server certificate (if used)

    If you do not know these settings, contact your email service provider or network administrator.
